Project Medtech Sponsorships

Sponsorship with Project Medtech is not just about visibility. It is about showing up where real business conversations are happening. Because Project Medtech serves startups and emerging companies through consulting, education, and networking, sponsors have the opportunity to align with a platform that is practical, credible, and relationship-driven.

Whether your goal is brand visibility, thought leadership, direct relationship-building, or year-round industry presence, we can help you identify the right fit. From digital exposure to live event engagement, there are many ways to advertise with us and align your brand with a trusted, highly targeted platform.

Event Series Sponsorship Opportunities

Project Medtech’s event sponsorship opportunities give brands the chance to connect with the medtech ecosystem in person through meaningful, high-visibility experiences. Our event lineup includes Startup Symposium, Midwest Showcase, and Coming to America—each designed to serve a different part of the medtech community while creating valuable opportunities for sponsors to build awareness and relationships.

Startup Symposium is centered on helping founders build successful medical technology companies through education, networking, and investment opportunities; Midwest Showcase highlights the strength of the Midwest medtech ecosystem; and Coming to America supports non-U.S.-based medtech companies preparing to enter the U.S. market.

Across these events, there are multiple ways to participate depending on whether you want broad visibility, association with key attendee moments, or more direct engagement with entrepreneurs and decision-makers.

Spotlight Sponsor

Spotlight sponsorship is the premier series option for organizations that want the highest level of visibility and integration across the Project Medtech platform. It includes everything in Beacon, plus even more event access, a second podcast guest spot, exclusive “Powered by” billing across 2026 event materials and titles, inclusion of company materials at attendee check-in, professional photos and video from sponsored participation, and priority consideration for co-branded white papers, webinars, and blog posts.

Beacon Sponsor

Beacon sponsorship builds on the Lantern-level visibility and adds more direct engagement throughout the year. In addition to the core series benefits, Beacon includes expanded event access, guaranteed panel or session participation at each event, one guest spot on the Project Medtech podcast, featured inclusion in the promotional video recap, and dedicated LinkedIn showcase posts to spotlight your company across the year.

Lantern Sponsor

Lantern sponsorship is a strong fit for companies that want consistent, year-round visibility across the Project Medtech event series. It includes foundational brand presence across event websites, signage, and program materials for all 2026 events, along with sponsor-table visibility, recognition in event materials and emails, homepage inclusion in the annual series sponsor section, and invitations to the pre-event happy hours at each event.

Event Experience Sponsorships

Hospitality & Networking Sponsorships

From happy hours to breakfast, coffee, and lunch, these sponsorships put your brand at the center of the conversations that move the industry forward. These moments that happen during an event are opportunities to fuel energy, spark connections, and create visibility during some of the most social and relationship-driven parts of the event experience. Whether attendees are gathering before the first session begins, recharging over lunch, or continuing conversations over drinks, these sponsorships place your brand alongside connection, momentum, and next-step conversations.

Pitch Competition Sponsorships

Pitch competition sponsorship offers prime visibility and direct engagement with emerging entrepreneurs as they present groundbreaking ideas during an event. This is a way to cultivate authentic connections and position your company as a champion of innovation. It's an especially strong option for organizations that want to be closely associated with startup growth, innovation, and founder momentum.

Fast Round Sponsorships

Fast round sponsorships give your company a concise, high-impact opportunity to speak directly to a room of qualified entrepreneurs at an event. These are focused slots designed to help your message land clearly and drive immediate conversations and connections. This is a great fit for sponsors looking for direct exposure, efficient visibility, and a more active presence within the event.

Media Sponsorship Opportunities

Podcast Series

The Project Medtech Podcast Series is a strong platform for reaching medtech innovators through in-depth conversations around fundraising, regulatory strategy, product development, commercialization, and more. Podcast sponsorship can include sponsor mentions, episode alignment, guest opportunities, digital promotion, LinkedIn amplification, visibility on podcast-related assets, and inclusion in supporting communications.

Newsletter sponsorship offers a direct way to stay in front of an opted-in medtech audience through recurring visibility in a trusted communications channel. This is a good fit for organizations looking for consistent brand presence, content adjacency, and ongoing exposure between larger campaigns or events.

Medtech Vitals

Medtech Vitals provides another way for sponsors to align with timely medtech content and ongoing ecosystem engagement. As a newer addition, it creates additional flexibility for brands that want to expand visibility across Project Medtech’s growing media footprint and build presence alongside current insights and industry conversation.
